Five Guys meal costs $70, sparking viral debate over restaurant prices

A viral TikTok video by user Mer Dorman has sparked a broader discussion regarding restaurant pricing and food quality. Dorman shared her experience at Five Guys, where a meal for two—consisting of two cheeseburgers, two orders of fries, and two Oreo shakes—totaled $70.

Dorman claimed that the meal was disappointing, specifically criticizing the quality of the burgers and stating that the amount of cheese made the meat nearly invisible. She also alleged that an employee pressured the pair into purchasing shakes despite their initial refusals.

The video has circulated on X, where many users expressed similar frustrations regarding the rising costs and declining quality of dining out.
